Wendy’s Baconator
This my journey through the euphoric nightmare that is the Baconator.
The initial ad was inspiring. Upon discovering this… my fate was sealed. Eventually I knew I would consume this delightful sensation that only an extremely sensitive palate could dare dream of.
A few days after the “release”, I finally decided to visit the nearest Wendy’s and pick up a Baconator. It was my time.
A group of co-workers and myself took this a landmarking journey, as it could not be accomplished alone.
The Quest for the Baconator.
(That’s my own secret title for such as escapade)
Pete was victim number one. However, he decided against the Baconator after viewing all the warning signs in-store. He got the traditional Wendy’s “Single”. A measly 430 calories.
This quest was not even close enough to completion. Jared in attempt to beat the Baconator in the calorie craze, began the true battle of the bulge.
He purchased a Classic Triple with cheese AND bacon.
What a champ.
It sure made him happy.
Finally, Jeaux and I, both purchased the infamous Baconator, the real goal for our quest.
Ladies and Gentlemen, I present you with… THE BACONATOR!
Now, as one would expect, this burger was far from the picture. Both in flavor and quality. Just take a look at it again. I’ll give you a moment to take in its 830 calorie glory.
Jeaux showcased his magical meal in all of its greasy goodness.
I purchased one as well, and my mission was a failure. Not only could I not complete the task of finishing such a feast, but I felt nauseous for about an hour following the event.
Overall, this has been one of the most gut wrenching (literally) experiences of my life. I am shocked that something like this would ever be put into production.
It should be illegal to create such a horrendous product.
Feed Me.

Think its bad eating just one. How about making 50 or 60 a day. Not much fun (and now I’ll probably be fired for replying negatively to a Wendy’s product =\
June 27th, 2007 at 12:25 pm
Wow, that’s,… umm, terrible.
June 27th, 2007 at 1:31 pm
i thought the baconator was pretty tasty, albeit a gross violation of my attempt to lose weight. and really, they need to do away with the mayo and ketchup, that shit’s just nasty.
June 27th, 2007 at 4:33 pm
I had to see a Dr. today and i only ate the JBC!
June 27th, 2007 at 4:39 pm
[...] EDIT: pics of one in the wild with story. [...]
June 28th, 2007 at 1:27 am
3/4 pound burger.
with 1.29 for double bacon.
here is where our arteries harden and speak to us.
if life is a story addressed and compounded it has weaved its way through this. white castle and arby’s runs pale to the sober decision that is this undeniable decision
those that detract are merely bad juju people..

I was standing in line yesterday to get a small chili and plane baked potato for lunch. In line in front of me was a fairly large woman. So while I was waiting I imagined what she would order. A salad? A small diet drink and a bag of carrot sticks? Nope. She ordered a “Number 4”. This was a secret code to allow people to not order by name. Saves large people the embarrassment of letting everyone know that they don’t care about their weight and are going to get even larger. Its all put in a bag that they can carry back to the table and pretend to be indignant about not getting their turkey wrap and diet water. But really they got what they wanted. As you may have guessed a “Number 4” is the baconator meal…
June 28th, 2007 at 4:43 pm
When I was in line, I ordered it as a number 4, because the co-worker who went before me asked for the baconator meal and was laughed at by the employee working the register.
It really is a goofy name, and worth laughing at.
July 1st, 2007 at 4:42 pm
Ian, this was beautiful. I’m glad you’re kicking ass in the google results too.
July 5th, 2007 at 10:16 pm
i think i just vomited.
July 7th, 2007 at 1:34 am
i think i` am goin to go on a journey.
a journey to tats the ever so imfamous BANOATOR.
i’ll reply to this agian once i have tasted the baconator or to some the #4
July 7th, 2007 at 12:57 pm
That Wendy’s has shit for staff. Look at those things.. they look like the ingredients were put in a bag, shook around for a while then wrapped up in infoil. Nothing like the Wendy’s in my small town. The burgers generally look “almost” as good as the pictures. Taste awesome too. Have yet to attempt the Baconator though :O
July 9th, 2007 at 1:22 pm
the captions and narration were superb!
i have never laughed so hard in my life.(well at least in the last couple of weeks while at work anyway)
THE iPHONE CAN LOOK AT PORN!
July 9th, 2007 at 10:24 pm
Nick, you are so busted!
I did an IP trace on you.
Pink slip is in the mail! (Kidding!)
Actually, that burger needs to be marketed as a heart attack in a bag! I bet it tastes good though!
July 10th, 2007 at 11:31 am
I had one the other day, and it was good, though not as special as I expected. Mine didn’t look quite as beat-up as yours, but still looked far from what the ad shows. But that doesn’t surprise me.
Also, there is a place that makes burgers that are even more dangerous, called the Heart Attack Grill. I haven’t been there, but if I’m ever going through Arizona, I want to check it out. They have a “quadruple bypass burger” and the fries that comes with it are cooked in pure lard and covered with cheese and gravy. It’s so far beyond healthy that it’s like, “What is healthy?” But I bet it tastes great…
July 10th, 2007 at 11:58 am
Okay, so it’s one thing to have a “special” sandwich that we can just ignore like we have their other crappy limited time only creations. To replace the Big Bacon Classic…now that’s just shameful. When asked if one could still be obtained, we were informed that it had been replaced permanently by they baconator. I wonder if Arnold knows about this?
July 11th, 2007 at 5:27 am
people, it’s fast food. what are you looking for, gourmet? take what you get, otherwise go watch a freakin’ emeril lagasse rerun where he makes duck tacos. stupid duck tacos.
July 11th, 2007 at 6:26 am
I’ll have a BK Double Stacker or a Sack o’Sliders any day thank you very much
July 11th, 2007 at 10:09 am
The Baconator…
Decide what you’re having for lunch yet?
No way I’m eating one of these……
July 11th, 2007 at 1:39 pm
I had one and a half Baconators at about midnight last night (my girlfriend only could eat half of hers… something about “too much meat”)… so I guess I ate about 1,200 calories in about 15 minutes. I was sweating profusely all night, despite having the AC cranked. I feel asleep on my back, buthad to leap out of bed at 6:30 a.m., or else I would have choked on my own vomit. I’m not a puker though, so I just sucked it back and drank a big glass of water.
July 11th, 2007 at 10:55 pm
I have really bad skin.. I tried the baconator yesterday…. I like baseball… i like chips too.. i need proactive….Go panthers!!!
July 12th, 2007 at 2:10 pm
I tried the Baconator today and I had a huge problem. I have an extremely oversized forehead that started pouring grease out of every pore on my forehead. My forehead is so big that I damn near drown in my own forehead grease, this was all triggered by my receding hairline and the BACONATER!!!!!!!
July 13th, 2007 at 10:55 am
BRING BACK THE BIG BACON CLASSIC!!! DOWN WITH THE BACONATOR!

Bah. This is weak sauce compared to a Hardee’s Monster Burger.
July 15th, 2007 at 12:36 pm
I had one today. It looked nothing like the ad. It didn’t taste as good as I expected. It simply is a double cheeseburger with bacon. At $4.80 just for the sandwich alone, it isn’t worth it. i won’t buy it again. But I do love Wendy’s though.
July 15th, 2007 at 12:42 pm
I need to add, I have guzzled about 4 glasses of water after eating that, and I am still thirsty.
July 17th, 2007 at 2:49 pm
Ya know…it’s not really SIX strips of bacon. It’s SIX half strips or 3 full strips. Ever go out to a breakfast place and get a 3″ strip of bacon? I’d pimpslap ‘em if they served me a 3″ strip of bacon. Anyways I always get a double with bacon (THREE half strips) so I can imagine what a Baconator would taste like (possibly TOO much bacon, if that is in fact possible). And so much does depend on the skills of the 14 year old cooking your order if it turns out like the picture in the ad. And why do we go out and spend $8 to have a 14 year old with no formal food prep training cook your dinner…I try not to think about it. I will try the baconator…I imagine it will be on the way home from the bar, drunk and makin’ bad desisions
July 17th, 2007 at 2:57 pm
P.S. I notice if you leave out the mayo…you can get ‘er down to 800 cal. (I’m on a diet)
July 18th, 2007 at 4:29 pm
First of all. Just reading the Baconater ad scared me. My cholesterol runs high - and like many of you when I looked at the poster - yes I was afraid- I just figured you eat it now and die later. I enjoy a burger now and then, but go to Wendy’s for their classic single, as cheese, especially the kind of cheese used on cheesburgers has LOTS of bad fat in it ( saturated ) - but this web site ( it is Friday afternoon ) made me laugh so hard I cried.. Thanks folks - and I am glad to see that so many of you are saying no to this product. Because as a person who ( tries) to help the American pulic fight obesity and diabetes, every where I look I can see that we are losing this battle, Many Thanks to fast-food restuarants who seem to be coming out with bigger, fattier burgers everyday. And thanks to the : Cheeseburger Bill passed by congress in March of 2005, they have NO responsibility for customers who die as a result of eating their foods - and therin lies the heart of the matter. My cousin died at the age of 55 from his first heart attack. He told me six weeks before he died that he had been eating at Applebee’s twice a day…. Watch out folks. These restuarants have no responsibility for your health. Their bottom line is what matters. Although I have seen some moves in a positive direction - I was shocked at this addition to the Wendy’s Menu as I used to think they leaned towards healthier foods. It’s your health. If you want to keep it I would recommend as much as possible that you enjoy the majority of meals - at home !!!! And thanks to the creator of this wonderful website ! Cheer !!!
July 18th, 2007 at 6:04 pm
Six slices of bacon?
I better not show this to my meat loving uncle. He’d think it’s a great idea.
July 19th, 2007 at 7:06 pm
I had one today and it was amazing! I loved every single bite. I’ll just have to work out twice as long tomorrow. ITS WORTH IT.
July 22nd, 2007 at 1:23 am
Listen, the Baconatorhas been given negative names like “Would-You-Like-More-Meat-With-Your-Meat” or “Dave Thomas’ Revenge”. A lot of people bash on the Baconator so much that I am sick of it. Today was my fourth time eating it and I must say…..THE BACONATOR ROCKS!!
July 22nd, 2007 at 10:14 am
One word sums it all up: SLOP
The bacon has the consistency of pig snot and tastes as good. Absolutely terrible. The bacon is so fatty that when you take a bite of the sandwich you end up ripping all the bacon out. It’s like eating a hamburger with the wrapper still on the cheese. I got choked on one of the pieces of bacon. This thing almost killed me. Well, I was warned and I’m sorry I didn’t heed the warning. It can sense fear alright. This beast destroys all comers.
Not only that, but ketchup and mayonnaise all mixed together in the same spot on the bun. Once you get to the middle of the sandwich it’s all there in one big puddle. Take a bite out of it and it makes you want to vomit on the spot. It takes so long to eat it that it’s cold by the time you get done. I finished it but I’m very disappointed in Wendy’s.
This from a man who has eaten a Wendy’s triple with double meat. Even that wasn’t this bad.
July 23rd, 2007 at 8:26 am
I had two. Aside from the 16 hours of meat-sweats, it was a glorious day.
July 23rd, 2007 at 9:59 pm
Speaking to you all as one that underwent a quintuple bypass at age 47, stay away from this mother fucker!
July 24th, 2007 at 3:47 pm

July 24th, 2007 at 6:39 pm
I think you mean ‘palate’ rather than ‘palette’…
July 26th, 2007 at 11:17 am
First of all I have to admit that it is a sloppy stack of processed 100% (I taste about 70%) beef. Along with the calories and fat this is a great burger. What I recommend to everyone is to stop by a Burger King and pick up a triple Stacker, next go to Wendy’s and pick up a Baconator. Combine both to make the ultimate bacon burger ever known to man. To will feel like taking a nap afterwards, but you must resist. Walk around the block a couple of times and you will live to see tomorrow. I am happy that fast food chains are putting burgers like this on the market. If you want to eat this crap then work out. People are fat because they have no desire to get off their fat asses and take a walk or ride a bike, not because of fast food.
July 26th, 2007 at 7:22 pm
Well, this is not the worst burger. I still remember the Monster Thickburger from Hardees. That huge sandwich is 1420 calories and 107 grams of fat. Sure you need fat, even some saturated fat, this burger is overdoing it. Sure, you can have it once in a while, but this burger I can’t stomach.
Oh, yea, and I’ve saw bigger burgers than this. There’s a burger restaurant near Oklahome that’s over 2 lbs of meat and a big sandwich, that’s over 3,000 calories and 275 grams of fat.
And if that weren’t enough, then Wendys is also announcing an extra large soda that’s 64 ounces, on top of the allready inflated 20 ounce small, 32-ounce med, 42 ounce large drank size they are offering. Why don’t they just bring back the extra small 16-ounce drink, ma-an?
July 27th, 2007 at 9:19 pm
Though I had the #4 for lunch, the rest of the day I was a victim of several gut wrenching #2s.
July 28th, 2007 at 4:42 am
I went to Wendy’s tonight and tried to order a Big Bacon Classic, but like many of you, was told that it no longer exists. They then suggested the artery clogging Baconator.
Personally, the only reason I really goto Wendys IS the Big Bacon Classic.
I’ve created a petition “Save the Wendy’s Big Bacon Classic”
http://www.petitiononline.com/wendybbc/
We can make a change, let’s do it! Signing will only take a few moments and help send a message to Wendy’s that bigger, is not always better. Tell your friends too
July 28th, 2007 at 1:49 pm
ok about this free enterprise hating leftist on the bacon blog
“It should be illegal to create such a horrendous product.”
if he doesnt like it, he shouldnt buy it
you do not call in police power of the gov because you disagree with a product
July 29th, 2007 at 11:36 am
Unbelievable website. Really great. You could make so much money just by putting up pictures of what the burgers actually look like.
So, I am at work waiting to get off in a couple hours and I am hungry and thinking how I might possibly pick up some Wendy’s on the way home. I know I really don’t want to eat the Baconator, but there is a curiosity because of the ads.
When I saw the pictures of what it really looks like it completely took away my need for one. And reading the responses I feel like I have already eaten one.
If you did this for every bad-for-you-meal I would loose 20 lbs in a week.
Thanks!
July 31st, 2007 at 8:01 am
I had the Baconator last week, and later in the day I had a huuuuge Italian meal stuffed with sausage and meatballs. My heart beat so hard went I tried to go to bed! Later that night I died, and I’m writing posthumously to warn all of you to do as I did, it WAS GREAT!
August 7th, 2007 at 12:08 am
Yeah, I was on the way home from a tennis tournament and saw a Wendy’s. I stopped to check it out. The baconator was pretty awe inspiring seeing as how it had two layers of meat and no veggies with bacon on top. Needless to say, I ordered it and nearly had a heart attack driving home. Add baconator on the list of things cops should routinely check for at stops b/c it may be even more dangerous than alcohol. Sir..your level of fats is extremely high, step out of the car I have reason to suspect that you are under the influence of the baconator. You’re going to have to come with me and spend the night in jail.
August 7th, 2007 at 3:37 pm
I had one a few weeks ago…. i just wish the wendy’s bacon was crispy. I can NOT stand chewy bacon!!!!
August 8th, 2007 at 11:23 am
You gotta order a 5-piece nugget just to wash this badboy down. No, it doesn’t look like the picture. The bacon is half-crispy, sort of tasty, but I suspect that’s the shaker full of salt they put in it. Be sure to get the large size, because you need to munch of fries during breather breaks and a gallon of ice tea to force it down towards it’s ultimate destination…digestion, bloodstream, heart…….(death)

the baconator is the greatest cullianary achievement in human history. bar none.
August 21st, 2007 at 3:42 pm
the baconator is a thing of glory, finally a food worthy enough to conquer my enormous appetite, I am glad they made this burger for real men who enjoy real meals and too all you calorie counting health nuts out there your just embarassed that you can not polish off a meal such as this in one sitting cause you are far too weak and lack the iron stomach in which you require to fully enjoy a real burger and not some appetizer like all the other so called burgers out there that i have to buy in multiples of 5 and 10 to conquer my hunger, unlike this heroic baconator which gets the job done in 1 single serving, thank you wendys thank you
August 30th, 2007 at 3:30 pm
Is it served with a defibulator? or a colostomy bag….. good lord they should name it the colon cleaner… alert the cleaning crew at work before going back.
August 31st, 2007 at 9:25 am
I weigh 140lbs at 5′ 11″ and for dinner one time with friends, I had a Baconator, a Chicken Cordon Bleu Sandwich, and an order of fries. I didn’t sweat, didn’t feel heart pains, and we went to play miniature golf afterwards. In other words, the darkness of the world didn’t close in on me.
What’s the big deal? The Baconator isn’t all that much food and people are making it sound like a major ordeal. I bet your garden variety salad with lots of dressing and croutons packs on as much calories as a Baconator.
September 5th, 2007 at 11:00 pm
I ate three Baconators in under twenty minutes. I woke up in a crazy sweat and couldn’t breath very well. I took a break from them for a while but eventually began eating them again. They are delicious!
September 19th, 2007 at 12:10 pm
Why would anyone ever eat this garbage?? I wouldn’t even think of putting that into my body, are you freaggin kidding me??
I’ll go for some sushi: salmon nigiri or
thai: vegetable stir-fry w/ chicken, maybe even
mediterranean gyro or something….
Why would anyone ever go to god damn Wendy’s or McD’s when you can get premium food for less than $10?
That’s why American’s are the fattest people on earth! Eating that processed crap waiting for diabetes and a heart attack. HAHA.
September 19th, 2007 at 12:21 pm
Had you read Fast Food Nation (by Eric Schlosser) or The Omnivore’s Dilemma (by Michael Pollan) you would never have stepped foot inside Wendy’s in the first place. You would have run screaming for the hills.
September 29th, 2007 at 6:35 pm
To think, had I not been on a academic quest to learn more about the marketing techniques Wendy’s used for the infamous Baconator, I would never have stumbled upon this hilarious webpage. The pictures are graphically astounding in accuracy and the posts from consumers are enough to make me wet my pants (in a way that doesn’t involve coitus). Loving it !! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
September 29th, 2007 at 9:26 pm
Does anyone recall the MonsterBurger?….a hardees short lived classic indeed. I think it had 3 1/4 lb patties, 8 pieces of bacon, 4 pieces of cheese, and a pound of mayo. My cholesterol just went up a few points thinking about it. Nothing like it after a night of heavy drinking in college.
October 22nd, 2007 at 7:39 pm
At my wendy’s it is $7 for just the baconator burger. Everytime I make one for a customer I yell FAT BURGER and then proceed to gag as I make it. The grease drips all over the paper we wrap them in and then gets smeared all over the bun when its wrapped making it mushy and nasty. I got dared to take a bite of one once and couldn’t do it. Man u gotta love the people who order a baconator with an extra patty and extra bacon then try to make up for it by ordering a biggie diet pop and a salad instead of fries. HAHAHA!!! Stupid fat people.
October 22nd, 2007 at 7:44 pm
Hey did safetypinn ever come back on and tell his adventure of the baconator eating??? Do u think it killed him?? Crap it got another one…..

November 14th, 2007 at 1:40 pm
I ate one with an order of great biggie fries, and a 44oz coke. It tasted great, and I thank God I live in a free country where these nazi food police can’t stop me. They need to all go to an island somewhere, and eat their tofu, and leave free people alone!
November 17th, 2007 at 4:12 pm
I eat one a week,there freaking delicious.
November 20th, 2007 at 10:34 pm
I was pretty disappointed when i ordered 2 of these(2 #4s). Didnt fill me up like i thot they would. Tasted great though.
November 27th, 2007 at 1:16 am
I had one over the weekend and it was everything I imagined it would be. The most pleasurable non-sexual experience I have ever had, bar none.
November 29th, 2007 at 9:56 pm
I just got one and I would have to say it’s the worst burger I’ve EVER had! That nacho style chesse was the worst! I never think I’d say this but I’m taking my business to McDonalds…
December 1st, 2007 at 9:44 pm
i’m sick of these weirdo health freaks who can’t handle the baconator. i ate it in like 6 bites it’s nothing.. it’s a damn double cheesburger with lots of bacon .. it doesn’t make you fat, thats what exercise is called you fatties!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
there’s two things i identified with .. someone said they choked on the bacon, i did that too and almost died.
and the other person who said they needed a 5 piece nug to wash this bad boy down, i ordered a 5 piece nug because i knew it wouldn’t fill me up.. and the nuggets didn’t do the trick either
this burger is amateur, but it’s really good
December 2nd, 2007 at 1:19 am
You are all weak and pathetic! In one sitting I had 3 (three) Baconators, a large fry and a large Diet Coke. I have not had “meat sweat”, or felt bloated at all.
LONG LIVE THE BACONATOR!
December 3rd, 2007 at 1:01 pm
that’s kind of sick actually.
i calculated it. 3,110 calories.. OVER KILL

WHEN DID WENDY’S STOP SERVING BREAKFAST? THAT SUCKS!!!!!!!!
December 17th, 2007 at 2:00 pm
I FREQUENT THE WENDY’S IN ROGERS, ARKANSAS. THE STAFF IS A LITTLE SCARY, BUT THEY ALWAYS SERVE WITH A SMILE. (TEETH OR NO TEETH) SOMETIMES I GET A LITTLE EMBARRASSED THAT MY NEW DIET MED SOMETIMES CAUSES ANAL LEAKAGE. I TEND TO GO THROUGH THE DRIVE THRU TO ALLEVIATE MY SITUATION. ALL IN ALL, I HAVE HAD PRETTY GOOD EXPERIENCES IN THERE.
December 27th, 2007 at 11:58 pm
I was at the Wendy’s drive thru last weekend my girlfriend. She ordered a Baconater and besides giving me a newfound respect for her, as she maybe weighed 95 lbs dripping wet, it gave me a large boner.
Later on that night whilst porking her, I couldn’t stop thinking about how hungry I was.
January 12th, 2008 at 10:29 pm
Being in the military, I’ve seen some people eat some really terrible things. For instance, whenever I go to eat with my military friends, we inevitably end getting baconators. I watched one guy, not even that big (5′10, 160lbs), buy four baconators. Then we all ribbed him for having to stop after the third. I love the baconator.
January 13th, 2008 at 8:41 pm
i just ate my first baconator. looking back…i don’t know WHY i thought it would be a good idea to get one. i’m not a huge girl (5′8″, 135lbs) and i was able to do this. afterwards, though, i started feeling really guilty and stumbled upon this website when i figured i should find out what type of poison i just put into my body. i feel fine (for now), but obviously this isn’t the type of food i’d eat on any type of a regular basis. *sigh* guess i’m going to be on the treadmill for 2 hours tomorrow.
January 29th, 2008 at 2:11 pm
Sigh. Went to Wendys for lunch today. I still miss the Big Bacon Classic. I felt guilty enough eating that, but this? No thanks. For some reason, adding bacon to a single just doesn’t feel the same. I think they’ve ruined my love of Wendys.
Great post, btw.
January 31st, 2008 at 7:06 am
Well, I LOVE meat, and that includes burgers, bacon and any other meat. I think that alot of
you are exaggerating on how big this burger really is. As another poster said, all the bacon
nator is is A DOUBLE CHEESEBURGER(ONLY TWO PATTIES) WITH EXTRA BACON!! And
when you consider the fact that Wendy’s burgers are smaller in size compared to their
“Where’s the beef” days, that makes the burger seem much more wimpy. I mean, what is
the difference between eating the baconnator versus going to a steakhouse and eating a
big juicy steak??? The steak is much more meat the baconator just seems bigger because it’s
stacked.
January 31st, 2008 at 6:09 pm
The second one loooks great. I could eat that all day long
February 12th, 2008 at 1:04 am
It’s should not be illegal to offer something to the public. we have enough laws … i even think there are waaaay too many drug laws. Pot is no more dangerous than alcohol and people destroy lives via alcohol everyday …
But the baconater IS gross. I simply defend your right to eat gross, destroy your body, etc.
February 12th, 2008 at 2:29 pm
I had one today. Out of pure very hungriness. Can’t believe I ate it. Looked horrible and I felt terrible after eating the damn thing. And this Wendy’s where I go to (Rapid City, SD East North Street) the employees are always fighting with each other and there is about 20 of them slammed into a little room. No wonder the food is crap and they are yelling at each other. Never again will I try one of their large nasty burgers.

I think all of you people that are saying that this should be illegal and shouldn’t be made should mind your own damn business. The me eat what I want and if you don’t like the baconator, don’t eat it. I work out very well everyday so I can eat whatever I want whenever I want. If you don’t, maybe you should get off you lazy a$$ and get into the gym

Just so you know, you can still develop heart disease and have a heart attack even if you are not overweight and exercise everday. Exercise can’t magically cancel out saturated fat & cholesterol you consume and stop saturated fat from sticking to your arteries. It can help, but you have to exercise AND eat healthy to have a healthy heart & arteries and prevent a heart attack and/or stroke. Just because someone looks fine on the outside doesn’t mean their insides are healthy.

I’m shocked about people that think they can tell other’s what to eat. Food Police Nazi’s is UNAMERICAN. Please. Stick to your own fanatics and don’t shove your crap down other peoples throats. It’s more revolting than the food you so despise. Don’t like it? Don’t eat it! Simple! Nobody is forcing you.

I LOVE the baconator! I’m 5′7 1/2, 125 lbs and I had NO problem finishing the Baconator meal, with fries and a soft drink. What we DONT need are FOOD POLICE trying to horn in on what people eat! You don’t like em? Fine. Don’t eat em. More for ME!

I thought it tasted pretty good, on the several occasions I’ve had the meal. I’m 150 pounds just barely 6′. I don’t know what the deal is with your pictures though looks like you had a strangle hold on that thing. Mine never turns out looking like that. And as for all you “food police”, fat people suck, but not everything makes you fat in the right quantities.

There are 3 keys to eating this beast and surviving:
1) contract rotavirus the week before to clear out your intestines thoroughly
2) down a whole bottle of cholesterol meds prior to ingestion
3) eat it on the toilet - in one hole out the other
